Rashba splitting of the Tamm surface state on Re(0001) observed by spin-resolved photoemission and scanning tunneling spectroscopy

Using spin-resolved time-of-flight momentum microscopy, the Rashba splitting of the Tamm surface state is investigated. This state resides at the Fermi level in a projected bulk band gap of the close-packed (0001) surface of hcp Re. The Rashba splitting amounts to 0.4Å^{−1}. The state with smaller p...
